Oh man I'm gonna need to start keeping a journal. So tonight flying over Memphis a net jets guy who sounds like he is having a stroke asks for direct to a point way off the arrival that doesn't even make sense so the controller says that is not an initial approach fix and I will be unable to give you an approach clearance say intentions. He then says I didn't know you had to go to an IAF to get an approach clearance when did that start? Then the longest pause I have ever heard after lots of chimes in for chuckles the controller says contact Memphis 119.1 maybe they can help you good luck. Holy crap was that ever not a thing? Maybe I'm too young. Thanks again for the laugh.
